Large, well-drained arable parcel near Ely with irrigation entitlement.
Approximately 76.97 acres (31.15 ha) of productive Grade 1 arable land
A substantial block of productive arable land close to Ely, Lot 1 offers c.76.97 acres of Grade 1 loamy and sandy soils currently farmed to a high standard under a mixed combinable and root crop rotation. The parcel benefits from full under-drainage, an assigned abstraction (irrigation) licence and straightforward access off Main Street (B1411), making it immediately usable for continued cropping or as part of a larger farming portfolio.
The soil quality and irrigation entitlement are the primary value drivers for farmers and agricultural investors seeking reliable yields and cropping flexibility. The land is offered for sale by private treaty, either as part of the whole holding or in up to four lots, giving purchasers options to acquire at scale or to add a strategically located parcel to existing holdings.
Buyers should note material practical points: the site has naturally high groundwater with a peaty surface and a medium flood risk, so ongoing water and soil management will be required. The property is not entered into environmental schemes and will be sold with vacant possession (harvest completion expected autumn 2024). The sale may be subject to VAT and is offered subject to existing wayleaves, easements and rights of way.
Overall, Lot 1 suits an arable farmer or agricultural investor looking for high-grade soils, existing irrigation rights and immediate possession after harvest. The land’s scale and location near Ely also present potential longer-term strategic options for consolidation within a local landholding.
